Description
Edvard Munch's photographic self-portraits offer a unique glimpse into the artist's radical vision. In the 1930s, Munch saw the camera as a means to express himself artistically, and his photographs of himself showcase the freedom and unpredictability of analogue technology. This collection of photographs, now presented in The Experimental Self: The Photography of Edvard Munch, provides a fascinating insight into Munch's artistic practice and his exploration of selfhood. Through essays by Patricia G. Berman, Tom Gunning, and MaryClaire Pappas, this book delves into the experimental nature of Munch's photographic practice, revealing the ways in which he extended his explorations of selfhood through photography. By examining Munch's photographs, readers can gain a deeper understanding of his artistic vision and its significance in the context of modern art. The Experimental Self: The Photography of Edvard Munch is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the life and work of Edvard Munch, as well as the history of photography and modern art.
